Hi there! Last week, we spoke about managing Oracle Database with REST APIs and also looked at ADB built-in tools. Today's episode is the last one of the season, and we're going to be joined by Oracle Database Specialist Greg Genovese, who will talk with us about Oracle Data Lakehouse.

Hi, Greg. I've heard about data lakes and data warehouses, but what's a lakehouse?

Traditionally, when deciding how to best increase their data productivity and liquidity, companies often find themselves having to make a choice between leveraging a data lake or a data warehouse, each of them having their own benefits and drawbacks.

Now, companies no longer need to make that choice. Instead, they can look to a broader strategy that offers highly accurate machine learning capabilities, the flexibility of using open-source services, and the superior data and analytics capabilities of the best-in-class Oracle Database and Data Warehouse. These capabilities are integrated with common identity, data integration, orchestration, and catalog into a unified architecture - the Oracle Lakehouse.

What are the benefits of Oracle Lakehouse?

Oracle Lakehouse facilitates ease of data reuse and recombination, maximizing insights from your data and generating several other benefits, including pure cost savings, as well as improving the agility of your current data warehouse by easily extending with new metrics, details, or attributes, which help you better understand your customers, your processes, or your risks, all while using your existing applications.
